Currently many of the older pupils are either using the benches designed for younger children or there is no desk at all.

The new desks will provide more space to study and allow the older pupils to store their work safely in the locker section of the desk.

Make a difference to the children at our school in Kenya

What and where is the need?

Our school in Soy in western Kenya has over 400 pupils. The older pupils do not all have age appropriate desks. Many of the desks are too small and cramp. They are also lacking chairs for the pupils to sit on to study. We are wanting to raise funds for 40 desks and chairs.

Why is this a pressing need now?

In Kenya the old benches are too small and have no storage for the older pupils.

Why are WIN best placed to tackle this need?

WIN has supported Nancy George Academy since the start and have partnered well with WIN supporters over the years. David visited recently and saw the problem firsthand.

What will be the benefits of your work?

The school will be properly equipped to provide a good environment for pupils to learn.

What is the impact if we don’t do this now?

Many of the pupils will continue to work in cramped and uncomfortable situations.

Why should people care about this?

It's important that the schools have an environment that is conducive to learning for all ages.

How do you ensure success and accountability?

Nancy George Academy has a committee which oversees the budget and procurement. It will be supervised by the school Director and visitors from WIN UK.

How much does it cost?

We need to raise £1500, which will buy about 40 desks.

Please help us provide desks & chairs
